Senators Deal Yankees 5-4 Loss
The Washington Senators racked up a win at Yankee Stadium, bumping off the New York Yankees, 5-4. Early Wynn, who started for Washington, pitched effectively for his team. The win has Washington at 3-2.

Had Mickey Vernon not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Vernon hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Senators.

Washington manager Ossie Bluege said his team played a "no nonsense" game.
